Research- 'conjuring' film ( movie reference #4)

-
The conjuring is by far one of my favorite series for horror! A great movie to watch over and over because the plot of the story is understandable and has meaning. I loved the authenticity of the scenes, It felt so real and I want to use that same feeling in the short film. You felt sympathy for the characters and during our film we wanted to have the viewer feel for the character when he lost his sister. The actors in the movie were also great, because the reactions and how scared they were showed a lot and it effects the viewer.

The slow motion of the woman in the basement towards the end of the movie mad it more frightening because there was so much anticipation and waiting for something scary to happen. In my film I use the same slow motion head turn because when the girl is going to the water the camera gets a slow moving action shot panning from the side of her to the front of her face. These shots and acting in this film was a great example for my piece and would love to have the same reaction to mine.

Revision- stroyboard

For our storyboard we had to revise it and change the layout of the scenes. Since I drew the first storyboard I resketched it and showed what we have decided to change our film to. In the first storyboard you can see the difference, it has a little bit different plot and climax because instead of me going into the water and getting wet we decided to have it where I get kidnapped instead because it was more realistic to be thrown in the back of the trunk instead of being called into the ice cold water. Not just that it was super windy again by the water and we didn't want to get that sound problem again and it was pretty cold. I believe that the scenes came out clear and better because the sound and the flow of the scenes are better. Before:  After:

CCR Draft #3

3. How did your production skills develop throughout this project? As the actor, my job was to create that dramatic effect on the girl when she was talking and moving. For example, I made sure to show when a moment was serious and when it was sad or scary. When talking about the missing girls and how the brother is trying to find them it created a dramatic sad affect. It was a serious moment that was sad because they were upset and in disbelief because of what happened. When I was kidnapped I showed how terrified I was and how i couldn't really talk when i got shoved in the trunk. Another production skill was that I did the editing on the film. it helped because i knew how to use the software and the editing process.
